Let’s go eat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did Idir loosen his hold. He took her hand and opened the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he saw Sal, his expression turned guarded. Without a word, he led Nina past him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sal drew in a slow breath, forcing himself to suppress the strong urge to snatch her back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina sighed inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Idir guided her to the table and seated her, then sat close beside her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Odian moved to take the seat on her other side—only for Idir to flick his hand, sending the chair skidding away with a burst of power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Odian’s face darkened.That damned Teng snake... just you wait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sat down one seat farther away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rest of the mates took their places as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if by unspoken agreement, they all began tending to Nina’s meal—peeling shells, picking out fish bones, serving dishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kith placed some of her favorite greens into her bowl, but Idir intercepted him. \"Move. I’ll do it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He mimicked Kith’s actions, carefully adding food to Nina’s plate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kith’s grip on his chopsticks tightened, his knuckles paling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dian stepped forward with a dish of peeled shrimp. \"Sister, I’ve already—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Idir brushed it aside. \"Nina, I’ll peel a fresh plate for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dian dug his fingers into his palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Finch’s fish was pushed away as well. Idir imitated each of them, determined to personally take care of Nina.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An invisible tension thickened over the table, sharp as drawn blades.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Off to the side, the cubs sat with their milk bottles, watching in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Linny nudged Momo.Why is your father suddenly so fierce? He wasn’t like this before...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Momo lazily sucked down a mouthful of milk and glanced over.He’s always been fierce.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first time they met, he’d already been mean—Momo still had that grievance carefully recorded in his little mental ledger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, he went back to drinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Linny looked at Idir again.Really?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he shrugged and resumed drinking his milk. Never mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other cubs exchanged glances, then lowered their heads as well. Whatever the adults were dealing with—it had nothing to do with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina pressed a hand to her forehead, trying to ease the tension. \"By the way, how are Zena and Mona?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zena is fine now. We arranged a room for her to rest,\" Odian replied. \"As for Mona... something seems off, but I haven’t had a chance to look into it yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina frowned. \"I’ll go check on them after this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the meal, Nina went first to see Mona, whose condition was more serious. Idir followed closely behind her, refusing to leave her side for even a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mona lay curled on the bed, her body slick with cold sweat, her face pale with pain and weakness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Winny had already woken up. He clutched Mona’s hand tightly, his small voice trembling as he called, \"Mother...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A tray of untouched food sat beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Winny, can you let me take a look at your mother?\" Nina asked gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he saw her, hope lit up his eyes. \"Pretty sister, you’re here! Please—please help my mother!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly moved aside to make room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina stepped forward and placed her hand near Mona, channeling her power to examine her condition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost immediately, she sensed it—a powerful, chaotic energy was rampaging through Mona’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be from that red crystal Yosan had used?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, Nina began to guide and stabilize the energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time passed slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At last, the turbulence inside Mona began to subside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her breathing steadied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gradually, Mona opened her eyes. When she saw Nina still tending to her, she could feel the difference—her body was no longer on the verge of collapse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gratitude flooded her expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lady Nina... thank you for saving me again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just moments ago, she had truly thought she was going to die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only her worry for Winny that had forced her to hold on—clinging to her last breath, hoping to beg Nina to take him in... even if only as a servant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina’s unexpected rescue left Mona overwhelmed with gratitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re welcome,\" Nina said gently. \"Your body should be fine now. Eat something later and get some proper rest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mona nodded earnestly. \"Thank you... I’ll definitely find a way to repay you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She and Winny owed Nina far too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina smiled. \"It’s alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pretty sister, thank you!\" Winny beamed, relief shining across his small face now that his mother was better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What ’pretty sister’? Call her Lady Nina,\" Mona corrected softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had heard others address her that way—it felt only right to follow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Winny quickly nodded. \"Lady Nina!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina shook her head with a light laugh. \"It’s fine. You can call me whatever you like.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She reached out and ruffled his hair. \"Go eat now, or your food will get cold.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rising to her feet, she added, \"Rest well. I’ll go check on another friend.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mona struggled to sit up, wanting to see her off, but Nina gently pressed her back down. \"No need to get up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then... take care, Lady Nina,\" Mona said softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina gave a small nod before leaving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Winny brought the food over. \"Mother, eat something.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mona cupped his thin cheek, her gaze soft but serious. \"Winny, our lives were saved by Lady Nina. You must repay her properly in the future, understand?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He nodded solemnly. \"I understand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A faint smile touched Mona’s lips as she began to eat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina then went to see Zena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment Zena spotted her, her eyes lit up. \"Nina—you’re here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had heard Nina had returned, but hadn’t had the chance to see her until now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zena stepped forward, reaching for Nina’s hand—but Idir blocked her instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t touch Nina.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina pushed his arm aside with a sigh. \"She’s a female.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That doesn’t matter,\" Idir said, wrapping his arms around her again. \"Females aren’t allowed either.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina rolled her eyes. What an absurdly jealous man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zena covered her mouth, stifling a laugh. Nina’s male was far too domineering—there would definitely be chaos in that household.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina pried herself free from Idir and turned back to Zena. \"How are you feeling? Any discomfort? Do you want me to check?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m fine,\" Zena said, stepping closer again. \"But since you’re here, I wouldn’t mind you taking a look.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina examined her briefly, smoothing out a few lingering injuries with her power. \"All done. You should be completely fine now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zena smiled brightly. \"Thank you, Nina.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hesitated, biting her lip. \"Nina... is he dead?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t know if Nina had truly succeeded. It wasn’t that she doubted her—only that she knew how powerfulthat onehad been.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Nina hadn’t succeeded... then she would accept her fate. As long as Nina had returned safely, that was enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nina’s lips curved into a soft smile. \"The one here is dead. You’re free now—he won’t control you anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zena’s eyes widened, joy bursting through them. \"Really?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really,\" Nina said, warmth shining in her gaze. \"You can leave Barbarian City now. Go wherever you want.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zena’s eyes grew misty. \"Thank you... Nina.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wanted nothing more than to hug her—but Idir stood firmly between them, refusing to let her near.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Zena found him incredibly annoying.Stupid male—so overbearing. I hope you fall out of favor for a hundred days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing her intent, Nina pushed Idir aside and stepped forward, pulling Zena into an embrace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I hope you’ll live freely from now on,\" she said softly, \"and happily.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zena hugged her back, tears slipping down her cheeks. \"Mm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally—truly free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Idir watched them, clearly displeased. It seemed even females would need to be guarded against in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though his hostility toward females was less than toward males, it was far from gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After chatting a while longer, Nina said her goodbyes and returned to her courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yanai had already prepared the bath. \"Nina, the water’s ready—you can go wash up now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1343,"2026-06-03T08:29:56.682Z","2026-06-03T08:30:03.516Z",1,"novelbin.me","e2c32963e9e716bcf02016cd3d26addf3a11b40fe0306d59420aca926eb3178b","after-giving-birth-all-my-beast-ex-husbands-sudd-chapter-262","after-giving-birth-all-my-beast-ex-husbands-sudd-chapter-260",299,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fafter-giving-birth-all-my-beast-ex-husbands-sudd-cover.jpg"]
